capturing a moment in time. shots of all the. other stories. provided attempts into someone else's work. inspiring documentaries from impassioned filmmakers and the front lines i feel like i know it i have the data to prove. witness on al-jazeera. hello again the top stories on al-jazeera the former president alan garcia has died

after shooting himself in the head as police arrived at his house to arrest him in parun garcia was accused of taking bribes from brazilian construction company autographed. sudan's deposed president on martin bashir has reportedly been moved from house arrest to a maximum security prison in the military leaders have arrested dozens of former officials who are part of this year's government. there have been airstrikes in the past few hours with both sides in the battle for tripoli coming under attack u.n. recognize government forces have targeted warlords twenty four halftimes position south of tripoli and have lost three of their own soldiers as air strikes hits their troops. but the u.s. secretary of state has opened the door to u.s. lawsuits against foreign firms doing business in cuba experts say hundreds of thousands of legal claims worth billions of dollars could be put in action the european union is opposing the move it will come into effect on may the second.

today we're holding the cuban government accountable for seizing american assets were helping those in the regime has robbed get compensation for their rightful property and we're vets and human rights and democracy on behalf of the cuban people let's speak to alan fischer he is joining us from washington d.c. it's tell us more about how this came about alan. well it's been on the books in the united states since one thousand nine hundred six was there almost twenty three years and the idea was that this could happen at any point but no president decided to put it into place because they wanted to see how things would develop with cuba and also they realized that it could cause problems with international trade and that's the immediate reaction we're getting from the likes of spain and canada and other european countries who are saying that they're going to challenge this perhaps in the world trade organization because the united states can take action

the empire on trade between two other solver nations so how does this so what will essentially if you had a property in cuba before the revolution and then that was seized by fidel castro i know perhaps you're running a hotel or you're running a distillery or you have some sort of office complex in what was an altar back a warehouse and you're a foreign country and a foreign company then people in the united states will be able to take action against you now another reason that this wasn't put on the books is that this could open up the courts to somewhere in the region of two hundred thousand court cases so you can see why there was reluctance but donald trump has been very keen to put pressure not just on cuba but also on its allies and that means nic could i go on and venezuela three countries which he's described as a troika of terror so he wants to make sure that there's pressure on cuba and by extension venezuela and they could i go ok alan fischer thank you. early results

from indonesia as presidential election suggest incumbent joker we don't know is on course for a second term with a comfortable lead over his challenger. official results won't be known until may when ballots from nearly two hundred million eligible voters will have been tallied andrew thomas reports from jakarta. i just told you they shout their president's victory may not be official yet but it's no less real for that in the center of jakarta his supporters are celebrating quick counts were carried out of voting stations as soon as the voting process finished each ballot paper held up to show where holes had been punched once tallied they pointed to a clear victory for the incumbent. we have all seen the. but let's be patient we need to wait for the old. let's all unite as

a nation. almost two hundred million people were eligible to vote and with a turnout of eighty one percent wednesday's vote was one of the biggest ever one day exercise in democracy anyway. i'm very happy to be here i urge everyone to come because the stands in the cressi in indonesia. i'm very proud of this because it proves i have fought for a good leader but it wasn't a smooth process everywhere the biggest problems were in west papua where ballot papers and boxes failed to arrive and voting has been delayed until thursday so proposed to be is not conceding yet and claims the problem showed the election may have been stolen. but take down before folk buy support safeguards the ballot boxes so we can fight. but the irregularities don't seem great enough to put the overall result in doubt if when it reports in may the

electoral commission confirms the. global results jocko the beaten proposal this year by great somalis when they last compete to do twenty pull to what's actually in this election result will represent a big big break out without a doubt the main. jet airways once india's biggest airline is holding all operations after bankers refused to lend more money mounting losses force that to counsel flights over the past few months the company's founder was forced out in march when the government state lenders to help avoid thousands of job losses creditors are appointing a new board let's bring in phase two meal he's joining us via skype from new delhi as we're saying it was regarded as one of india's biggest airlines how did the company get to this point phase. during it was a long road down unfortunately at its peak jet held about twenty two and

a half of the market share in india now it's roughly about twelve percent it's had financial difficulties for years in two thousand and thirteen jet actually was close to collapsing but thanks to government rule change rule change allowing foreign direct investment to a certain extent into indian airlines they were saved when the hard airlines bought a twenty four percent stake but new domestic airlines low cost airlines kept eating into their market share and profit share and since late last years they have problems paying back their loans and paying employees which is how we got to this point and what does this mean then for passengers. well it may be asian expert al jazeera spoke with today believes that short term prices will go up for passengers politically particularly domestically but indian flyers are very price conscience here diary and so the only pay so much before they stop flying and india's market is growing at such a pace that they believe he believes that other airlines will eventually cover that

gap now internationally is going to be a bit different jet has been flying abroad since two thousand and three and they also have several co-chair deals with several international airlines such as scale i'm in france and air canada so losing these routes could affect not just indians going abroad and returning home but also bringing tourism and tourists into the country several competitors could in theory take over some of these routes but it would take time to negotiate with other airlines airports and get permission to for these new airlines to fly into those countries that jet flew to and the f.a.a. is that's where the next that we're hearing that creditors are going to be appointing a new board. exactly there's this new hope isn't gone yet for jet airways they're still trying to see they can consolidate some of the debt bring in a new buyer and hopefully resurrect the airlines in fact on thursday hundreds of employees are going to be protesting here in new delhi hoping to get government attention and maybe even investor intention to invest in jet airways and bring it
